 Khorasani and 'Araqi: two Schools of Music in Iran
Safi aldin's observations were associated basically with the art-music of Baghdad, a city that for centuries remained as a junction of various cultures.
In his response to Safi ad-Din, he stated, "In practice musicians do not pursue the same aim in all modes: in some their aim is to give prominence to a lesser interval; and in others to give prominence to a single note-" (Quoted in Wright 1978:46).
Historically, this school lasted until the 13th century, when again it was replaced by the systematist theory of Safi ad-din in Baghdad, the theory that basically was associated with the artmusic, of Baghdad.

Abd al Qadir was his father's representative in those border villages which acknowledged the Nihri Sayyids and, as a result of this status, also designated by governor of Urumiya as their intermediary responsible for the tranquillity of the local tribes.
However much Abd al Hamid was opposed to reform, he could hardly have had in mind a reversion to the tribal principalities his forebear Mahmud II had abolished.
So Abd al Hamid swallowed the European reforms thrust upon him in Istanbul but made sure, by putting the Hamdiya under Zakki Pasha rather than the civil authorities, that they could never be properly implemented.

 The Safavids
He was succeeded by his grandson, Shah Safi I (1629-1641) who was notorious for the systematic way in which he eliminated every other possible claimant to the throne, including, as the story goes, his own mother.
He was succeeded by his son Shah Safi (1666-1694), the curious events surrounding whose coronation, were witnessed by Sir John Chardin.
Safi was at first thought to be unfit to govern as he was thought to have been blinded, however when he was found to be fully sighted he was immediately crowned.

 Abdullah Ibn Saba (Part I)
When the two tribes joined in Medina to create what became the first Islamic society led by the Prophet(PBUH&HF) (year 0 AH), those related to Qahtan were named al-Ansar (Helpers) who were the residents of Medina at that time; and those from Adnan and their allies who traveled to Medina and were called al-Muhajireen (Immigrants).
As the friction increased between the two tribes of Adnan and Qahtan in Medina and Kufa, the Adhanies reportedly used to nickname the Qhantanies by the term Saba'iya.
The personality Abdullah bin Wahab al-Saba'i, the first leader of al- Khawarij (the group which opposed Ali (AS) during his rule), was from the first tribe, the Saba'iya or Qhatan above.

He drew for the Shi'ites the way of the spiritual Ima`mate, impressed Shiism with the impression of everlasting sadness and continuous weeping over al-Husayn, and dedicated himself to worshipping, so he was given the nick-name of al-Sajja`d and the Kunya of Zayn al-'Abidin.
Sa'd on giving these outstanding qualities to Ima`m Zayn al-'Abidin, peace be on him.
sadness for Ima`m al-Husayn, lord of the youth of Heaven; rather it was the tragedy of Karbala`', whose terrors melt the hearts, which impressed Shiism with the world of sorrow and sadness.

Sheikh Safi's tomb chamber is a cylindrical tower capped by a rather low dome, underneath which an exquisite carved box, one of the finest movable treasure pieces of the mausoleum, bearing an inscription in Reqa script, covers the actual burial ground.
The dome of Sheikh Esmail's tomb chamber is lower than that of Sheikh Safi's and is decorated on the outside with colorful tiles and an inscription in Kufic.

 Classical Persian Music
This 'claiming of ownership' has in actuality been taken to extremes - of three of the period's major figures (al-Farabi, Ibn Sina, & Safi al-DIn) scholars from Persia, Arabia, Turkey, & even Russia have claimed ownership on the basis of birthplace, genetics, residence, & language of their works.
As an example, the historian Henry G Farmer lists 28 music theorists between the 8th & the 12th centuries, claiming that these are only the 'most important' (how many such 'important' theorists could be claimed for the Western European era & musical culture ?), & this list misses out writers such as biographers.
Nevertheless, it persisted, & indeed important changes were made, such as the final organisation into the present system of 12 dastgah-e during the Qajar dynasty (1785 - 1925).
